What to know about Isabel Marant Etoile

The cheaper half of Marant

Étoile is Isabel Marant's diffusion line, launched in 2000 as a casual counterpart to the 1995 runway collection, with prices typically around half the mainline's.

Bohemian, Western and rock references

The house signature runs through denim, printed cotton dresses, embroidered blouses, chunky knits, blazers and logo sweatshirts, with knitwear the most recognised piece.

Sold beside full-price designer

Distribution runs through Isabel Marant's own boutiques and site plus wholesalers including SSENSE and Net-a-Porter, so it sits in designer rooms at a lower entry point.
